Routine Experiment Effect

In this section, we will learn how to use K230 to implement target detection based on yolov8

The model we use in this section supports the recognition of nearly 80 types of objects. For specific types of objects that can be recognized, we can refer to the content of the labels array in the code.

A simple summary of the following contents

After connecting to the IDE, run the sample code in this section, and then we will find a few simple scenarios to experiment with

You can see that K230 can correctly identify our items and give them scores.

This model can recognize a lot of things, I won't list them all here, you can try it yourself according to the table I listed above

The current routine has added serial port output

For the protocol format, please refer to [Routine Communication Protocol.xlsx] in the document.

Algorithm Overview

What is yolo?

YOLO (You Only Look Once) is a popular family of object detection algorithms. Here are the main features:
